Do's and don'ts in power training?

[Christoph]

Hi everyone

 

I recently bought a second hand power meter from the hub and would like to start with power training right after the SA's.

 

Please can anyone inform me on power training mistakes and/or interesting information regarding power training. e.g. how to TT with power? how to calculate your lactate threshold in power etc.

 

Any comments are welcome!

 

Thanks a lot

Buy the book! This is a huge topic and I suggest you start reading, it becomes very confusing and technical.

Is this a book from Joe Friel??

 

I have the normal Cyclist training bible and have heard of his book called 'Training with power..' or something?

 

Can someone please point this book out to me because I can't seem to find the right one on the web..not too sure which one it is and the Title??

I believe he means this: http://www.amazon.com/Training-Racing-Power-Meter-Hunter/dp/1934030554/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1297989449&sr=8-1

DO try to break your chain.

DON'T actually break it.

 

That's it.
